This guide explains the different card types supported by Corpay, how they are used, how they are linked, and the key identifiers and restrictions associated with each car.

​
1. Standalone EV RFID Card (Tag or Chip)

A standalone EV card is a single card used only for EV charging. It can be issued as:
  • RFID Tag, or
  • RFID Chip card
There is no parent fuel or Travelcard card associated with this model. Key Characteristics
  • Used exclusively for EV charging
  • Supports RFID-based authentication
  • No fuel pumping capability
  • No magnetic stripe usage
  • Common PAN pattern: NL‑TCE‑*, NL‑TBE‑*, NL‑TDE‑* depending on country
Typical Use Case
  • EV-only fleets
  • Customers who do not require fuel or value-added services

​
2. Dual Card (Travelcard Parent + EV RFID Child)

A Dual Card consists of two linked cards:
  • Parent card: Travelcard‑branded fuel card
  • Child card: EV RFID card (Tag or Chip)
Both cards belong to the same vehicle but serve different purposes. Capabilities
  • Parent (Travelcard card)
    • Fuel purchases
    • VAS services (e.g. car wash via magnetic stripe)
  • Child (EV RFID card)
    • EV charging via RFID
Key Characteristics
  • Parent card typically has a 30XXXX PAN
  • Child EV RFID card typically has an NL‑TCE‑* PAN
  • Cards are logically linked in the Corpay system
  • Fuel and EV usage are separated by card type
Typical Use Case
  • Mixed fleets (ICE + EV)
  • Customers requiring both fuel and EV charging on the same vehicle

​
3. EV Service Card (EV + VAS, No Fuel)

An EV Service Card is not a fuel card, but combines:
  • EV charging via RFID chip
  • VAS services (e.g. car wash) via magnetic stripe
What it Supports
  • EV charging
  • VAS subscription services
  • Fuel pumping (not supported)
Card Structure
  • Child EV RFID PAN: NL‑TCE‑*
  • Parent VAS PAN: 30XXXX (used only for VAS / magstripe)
Typical Use Case
  • EV fleets that require EV charging and car wash
  • No fuel usage allowed by design

​
Vehicle Linking

All Corpay EV cards are always linked to a vehicleRegNumber (license plate) The vehicle registration number is the primary anchor for:
  • Card lifecycle
  • Transaction attribution
  • Fleet reporting and compliance

​
Understanding Card Identifiers

Each card has multiple identifiers used for different purposes. These are often confused, so the distinction is important. Primary Visual Card Number
The primary number a user sees and enters when lodging a card. Rules
  • Dual card → Parent card number
  • Standalone EV card → EV RFID card number
  • EV Service card → Parent VAS card number
Purpose
  • Card verification
  • Card lodging into apps or portals
Secondary Card Number
The EV-specific card number when an EV card is configured as a child. When Used
  • Only applicable for Dual Card or EV Service Card
  • Represents the EV RFID PAN
CardIdentifier
A system-generated unique identifier for each card in the Corpay backend. Characteristics
  • Not visible on the physical card
  • Used internally by Corpay services
  • Remains constant even if card numbers change
Purpose
  • API integration
  • Card management
  • Reporting and lifecycle tracking
3.4 KeyIdentifier (EV Cards Only)
A unique identifier required to lodge an EV card into an EV charging application. Important Notes
  • Applies only to EV RFID cards
  • Used by EV platforms and apps
  • Enables secure EV card enrolment
4. Card Restrictions Corpay supports two distinct types of restrictions that can be applied at card level.
4.1 Fuel Restrictions Fuel restrictions define what type of fuel (if any) can be purchased. Example
  • Fuel restriction: “Alleen Diesel – geen Premium”
    • ✅ Diesel allowed
    • ❌ Petrol, premium fuels, or other fuel types blocked
Applies To
  • Fuel cards
  • Dual card parent cards
4.2 Non‑Fuel (Extras) Restrictions Non‑fuel restrictions control additional purchasable products. Example
  • Extras restriction set to AdBlue
    • ✅ AdBlue purchase allowed
    • ❌ All other non-fuel extras blocked
Applies To
  • Fuel cards
  • EV Service cards (VAS only)
